We'll probably get more detail in the LL before 5.4 comes out in December.

open coral
remote lintel
@leaden ginkgo its literally just 123 then burst
and the burst is just spamming like 2 buttons over and over
i can tell you the ninja opener is definitely longer
open coral
MCH is only complex-seeming because it's a high-weave job
cedar compass
how much better is "BiS" vs say full allegory set?
remote lintel
the substats are better
leaden ginkgo
you can combine them
remote lintel
and the weapon is a lot better if you need the savage weapon
robust notch
Well, BiS is usually 50-60% Allegory Set anyways
leaden ginkgo
I've tried a lvl 50 opener on both jobs and Ninja is definitely shorter
And easier to remember
robust notch
Just replacing pieces with Edenchoir to get more crit, and using an Edenchoir weapon
Machinist opener in level 50...?
You use Hot Shot, then 123 until you get Hypercharge
jade quartz
Level 50 
robust notch
Then spam Heat Blast
leaden ginkgo
is e8s doable purely with pf?
robust notch
and weave Gauss Round and Ricochet between Heat Blasts
remote lintel
jade quartz
Level 50 is not indicative of anything really
slate arrow
Yes
remote lintel
this is the lvl 80 nin opener
robust notch
Oh that's simple
robust notch
Machinist is the most braindead job
remote lintel
literally half of it is just spam 2 buttons
open coral
Like I said, MCH only seems complicated because it has so many weaves.
It's otherwise a very simple job.
remote lintel
and even then it doesn't double weave much
robust notch
It doesn't have a lot of weaves outside of Hypercharge
open coral
Yeah, true
robust notch
and 95% of the weaves it does have is just Gauss Round and Ricochet anyways
leaden ginkgo
Maybe to you. But I find Ninja way simpler
robust notch
Did you see the images?
leaden ginkgo
Yeah. And?
leaden ginkgo
my class is more simple
calm phoenix
How TF am I supposed to get the Sea of Clouds crystal if the fate monster barely takes any damage when hit even by fester and can kill me in 5 - 7 hits???
remote lintel
which crystal
leaden ginkgo
I'm merely giving my opinion of the job. Just because it's simple to you doesn't mean it's simple to other people
obsidian patio
Boss fates are balanced around needing a party
robust notch
My Machinist opener at level 50 would be
Ctrl 1, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 (repeat until Hypercharge ready) Shift 2, E, Q, E, R, E, Q, E, R, E, Q
And then rinse and repeat
obsidian patio
I suggest sticking to the escort fates and ones that don’t have a boss
calm phoenix
Elite boss fate?
remote lintel
@leaden ginkgo when you play it more and play more classes your opinion might change
obsidian patio
Yeah that’s the elite boss fate for the Sea of Clouds
jade quartz
That’s the boss achievement FATE for the Sea of Clouds
leaden ginkgo
my class has a longer opener
faint flare
@calm compass turn on collectors glove and use appraisals
jade quartz
Just don’t attempt that one
wise blade
too much to memorize as ninja
faint flare
Elite boss fates require a party
They're ones with different music
And usually longer timers
calm phoenix
Well it still had 25 minutes on it and I need to catch these fates shortly after they spawn or it does not give me a gold rating
remote lintel
don't do elite fates without a party
leaden ginkgo
The fuck?
jade quartz
@calm phoenix that’s not true
faint flare
Yeah, elite fates have longer times because they flat out require a party
leaden ginkgo
That's not the image I copied
jade quartz
@leaden ginkgo #memes-and-shitposting

Yo pretty new to the game still and just hit 80 not to long ago, was wondering what the removal of loot lockout means on last patch notes, does this mean I can spam savage floors until I fully gear myself or is there some restrictions in place? thanks
remote lintel
they didnt mean it lyon lol
faint flare
Being in a party helps get gold as party contribution counts towards your contribution
leaden ginkgo
@leaden ginkgo please keep the conversation to questions only
calm phoenix
@calm phoenix that’s not true
@jade quartz Then what determines the rating? It is not time?
jade quartz
Contribution
faint flare
Its damage dealt
remote lintel
@lost river yes oyu can spam it
jade quartz
If you solo the fate then you’re guaranteed gold
haughty spade
what does the darker yellow bar on the exp bar mean?

remote lintel
where did you get that
leaden ginkgo
yes, we get it, machinist is complicated
robust notch
WeskAlber
remote lintel
yeah
calm compass
@faint flare thanks a lot
remote lintel
its just 123 and burst
lost river
@remote lintel thanks for the heads up my man, is it possible to spam the same floor for the type of loot I need? and would it be better to spam a particular floor over others as to get it done faster?
faint flare
Each floor drops different loot
jade quartz
That’s barely what we’d call an opener
remote lintel
your bis won't be full savage gear
faint flare
!faq savageloot
zinc orbitBOT
jade quartz
Different jobs are more intuitive for different people
leaden ginkgo
@jade quartz exactly
jade quartz
Can drop it now
lost river
@remote lintel yeah I was doing some reading on that, it looks like bis is gonna be a combo of crystarillum gear and eden. just wanted to get the gear I can get now out of the way because the other is time gated
@remote lintel appreciate the help nonetheless
zinc orbitBOT
bold rain
how do i turn on the automatic monthly pay?
open coral
Even if you can't get actual BiS, as long as you know your class stat priority you can make a pretty decent show of things.
gloomy mortar
What is there to do last lvl 80? Just grind dungeons for endgame gear?
remote lintel
raids, crafting, housing, glamour
open coral
Level other jobs.
obsidian patio
Dungeons have entry-level gear to help get you into the endgame
open coral
Make gil
leaden ginkgo
@lost river you can replace your eden's verse (Savage) gear with crystarium, with time. However, it's recommended you increase your item level first, so getting a i500 piece is better until you can min/max adjust your set with the crystarium pieces
remote lintel
@bold rain it should be automatic renewl if you paid for sub with your card iirc
im pretty sure theyre talking about eden verse savage
bold rain
and how to turn in off?
bold rain
the question is how?
remote lintel
from the mog station website
obsidian patio
Right below Service Account Status
lost river
@leaden ginkgo gotcha, but if I can spam the savage to try to get the BiS gear first that should be optimal coming from a player with just full neo-ishguard correct?
bold rain
can you send me the exact link
remote lintel
neo ishgardian is a bit low ot enter savage at this point
obsidian patio
!faq mogstation
zinc orbitBOT
remote lintel
you can do puppet bunker for a 490 piece
leaden ginkgo
just upgrade your neo ishgardian
lost river
yee I got a chest piece from bunker yesterday
remote lintel
if you have phanta tomes you can upgrade neo ish
lost river
just trying to figure out the best way to keep moving forward
leaden ginkgo
the best way is to just farm eden's verse savage
lost river
without sinking to much into gear ima replace
little swift
your bis is a mix of edenchior and augmented crystarium either way
remote lintel
if your neo ish is HQ go to eulmore to exchange them for neo ish 490
costs phanta tomes
bold rain
GREAT seems as i dont have to pay off the "bill"
gloomy mortar
So just do augmented Neo ish while waiting for augmented Crystarium gear? For what level dungeons is it necessary
leaden ginkgo
it's for raids
gloomy mortar
What is a raid
lost river
should have joined the discord sooner lmao, this is all the information I was missing
bold rain
and its time to go back to rpg maker
little swift
you got 30 days
remote lintel
raids are like glorified trials
leaden ginkgo
@gloomy mortar raids are high end content/duties
bold rain
so i have 8 days and i bought it from steam
bold rain
and well that says itself
little swift
to your account
you didn't have a sub in the first place
the base game gives you 30 days
before you have to subscribe
bold rain
well yea i bought the game from steam
gloomy mortar
What are some names of savage raids
bold rain
i wanted to try this one month
bold rain
so let me get that clear
remote lintel
@gloomy mortar alexander savage, omega savage, eden savage
lost river
@remote lintel one last question and Ill get out of your hair, will trading in my HQ-neo remove my Materia from the current gear?
faint flare
Yes
remote lintel
@lost river i believe so, so remove them yourself first
faint flare
Because its under high end duty tab
leaden ginkgo
yes, take the materia out
little swift
you don't have to buy the game again
twilit arch
Verse Savage is in the high end duty section
keen fable
ah
little swift
you just pay for a subscription now
lost river
@remote lintel alrighty, appreciate the help my man.
remote lintel
👍
zinc orbitBOT
remote lintel
it wont charge you if you never subbed
bold rain
well i never subbed
remote lintel
once you buy sub time with a card it should put you on auto renew iirc
leaden ginkgo
canceling your subscription just means they won't charge you in a regular basis
bold rain
just got the game from steam and thats all
little swift
it hasn't charged you anything
bold rain
yep
remote lintel
it only charges you AFTER you pay for sub
remote lintel
if you dont want the auto renew you can just pay for sub with crysta and refill it whenever you want
keen fable
i'm currently sitting at 466 after completing e1-e8
bold rain
hm
keen fable
do i just continue to do shiva
faint flare
Do your puppet bunker as well
bold rain
well ill go back here when i WILL want to renew the thing
faint flare
For the weekly 490
faint flare
5.4
little swift
cap removed for allegory as its no longer the endgame tome in 5.4
twilit arch
we'll get a new weekly tomestone tho
remote lintel
little swift
new tome will have cap doubled close to the end of the expansion
remote lintel
oh no thats big
twilit arch
there's basically always a weekly tomestone
keen fable
does this mean adding a CH materia wont do anything?
twilit arch
correct
faint flare
Yes
twilit arch
you will get 0 crit because its capped
leaden ginkgo
is it worth upgrading deep shadow set of my alts?
calm phoenix
Why is there only boss fates in Coerthas Western Highlands? There is literally just five fates here, all bosses and the best I could get on them is taking off 30% on the most recent before I had to run for my life
leaden ginkgo
what's a good thing to spend phantasma on?
little swift
depends on what you want
if you have no neo-ish you want to upgrade
grab crafting materials
to sell
remote lintel
@calm phoenix only a certain number of fates can be active at a time
so either wait for them to despawn or get some people and kill some
faint flare
Chocobo out for healing, usw titan shield as well
calm phoenix
My Chocobo is low level and is stabled.
remote lintel
use it more
tidal yarrow
after having done the first 24man raid what quest do i do to progress for the relic quest?
remote lintel
@tidal yarrow the ivalice raids?
faint flare
As long as you have it with some healing its enough usually
Some healing is better than none
tidal yarrow
i did the first one as of now
i thought that by following the quests i was good but it kinda ended here lol
remote lintel
you need to do the whole questline
shut kelp
how is class determined with plots?
remote lintel
all 3 alliance raids
calm phoenix
My brother-in-law feeds every time he can it and when it needs to be taken out for a kill to level up, I do so. Was told that it is faster that way
shut kelp
is it by view?
calm phoenix
She is level 3 now
obsidian patio
@shut kelp no official method/criteria given
remote lintel
your chocobo gains more experience when you use it more
obsidian patio
Assumptions are view, distance to marketboard/retainer, and position
keen fable
do e5n-e8n all drop the same gear tokens
little swift
do your chocobo challenge log
obsidian patio
!faq edenloot
zinc orbitBOT
keen fable
ooh
little swift
those are large amounts of exp as well
tidal yarrow
all 3 alliance raids
do you know where can i unlock the second one?
remote lintel
your quest should tell you
keen fable
is the higher the number the more that drop?
tidal yarrow
i don't have any quest active that's the problem
obsidian patio
Yes, so E1/E5 always drop 3 accessory tokens
leaden ginkgo
If I cast Addle on a boss and then it disappears, does it still gets the INT reduction? (like with the iconoclasm burst after adds)
faint flare
If the debuff lasts
faint flare
The add doesn't give its debuffs to the boss
remote lintel
adds are separate entities
calm phoenix
Why did a fate fail when there was still 11 minuites left on it?
remote lintel
probably a special fate
calm phoenix
It was one I spawned from an NPC
raven sage
If it had an objective to protect then the objective was killed
stone niche
Are there no other ways of getting centurios and allied seals besides completing hunts?
calm phoenix
a small dragon NPC
remote lintel
@stone niche those are the hunt currency so no you cant get them elsewhere
calm phoenix

Probably the thing you were supposed to protect died
gusty storm
if you boost do you lose out on class quest lines
leaden ginkgo
Paladin and White Mage quest lines are bad
gusty storm
everyone says whm is super good?
leaden ginkgo
the quest lines or the job?
remote lintel
the summoner one was meh for me
elder sinew
What's a quick way to complete the Bosom Buddy challenge for the choco?
slate arrow
WHM is okay, compared to the later questline anyways
It's certainly better than stormblood Paladin and Warrior at any rate, personally
leaden ginkgo
I'd dare to say even the Armorer quest line is better than any of those
rotund sable
everyone says whm as a class is good, not the class quests, they have some pretty boring quests in there
leaden ginkgo
the culinarian quests are funny
and basically any Heavensward job has great quest lines
turbid pilot
oh i'm lovingthe culinarian quest line
elder sinew
Synced FATES count then?
tacit atlas
Yes
tacit atlas
Depends on your server
twilit arch
you can exchange the ore/seed for topsoil
rich moss
what should i do with diadem resources that didn't pass inspection? also, what do you do with approved diadem resources if you don't have a DoH? just sell them on the market?
tacit atlas
Topsoil is the one that people usually say
dreamy flume
How long will the game be down for the patch?
twilit arch
5hrs
tacit atlas
@rich moss it's not that they didn't "pass inspection", it's just that they get approved by 10 mats
leaden ginkgo
@patent citrus if you have unlocked the Level 80 relics, you can buy more relics for your alts for like 1k poetics
rich moss
oh i see
twilit arch
more relics won't give gil
calm phoenix
Are you guaranteed a luminous crystal if you solo a fate? I got 4/6 of all the crystals with just one fate each. That is out of five fates. A couple jumped in last minute on the fate that did not give me the crystal and I am wondering if they ruined my chances by participating the last 30 seconds
faint flare
No
latent prism
will the patch be available for predownload?
tacit atlas
Usually they do that
latent prism
no eta?

Nope

@severe salmon they have to change it in rank settings
gusty storm
Is there any way to try classes
tacit atlas
No
warped nest
Not really tbh
severe salmon
thx @little swift
tacit atlas
Which is not really "trying" a class at that point
calm phoenix
Just made it 5/6, one more to get. Apparently some boss fates are "easy"? I had no problem with the boss fate in the Hinterlands
faint flare
Because its not a achievement fate
If its not a achievement fate then its far easiee
Also fates scale based on how many have been done in the area recently
waxen violet
If I relocate from a small to another small, will it retain my layout or will I have to redo it all again

No

faint flare
Are you in a party
leaden ginkgo
yes
faint flare
Is your party members in old gridina

They’re only in Extreme, right?
leaden ginkgo
uh? is that a thing?
tacit atlas
No
faint flare
1% to stats per role

The only area that is refusing to give up their crystal is Coerthas Western Highlands. Now there is ABSOLUTELY ZERO fates in Coerthas Western Highlands. I thought that fates were supposed to spawn when others are removed?
faint flare
It takes time still
faint flare
Only a set number of fates can be up, when there's space the timers run until one spawns
muted tapir
running out of fates means it’s time to take a short break and get some water😂

I tried joining one as BLU but it said I couldn’t.
Does it have to be mine specifically?

The PF leader probably blocked blue

Question about the new housing wards coming in the upcoming update. If you log out in one of the existing wards will you get kicked out and be sent to the main city's Aetheryte upon login, or will you just log in and be where you logged out at?

you get kicked out of the housing area

I am unable to "disable target motion" in gpose! No matter how many times I click it, it does not activate! there is no gold ring around it or anything when I click it. I made sure that this dragon was being targeted when I entered gpose. Does anybody know what the problem could be?
proven pewter
is it viable to not do combat late game and only do gathering and crafting
faint flare
You need to target it in gpose
leaden ginkgo
yes promuch
proven pewter

leaden ginkgo
to some people crafting / gathering is the endgame
like I’ve seen people with one combat class 80 and maxed crafters / gatherers
proven pewter
yeah thats what im gonna do
calm phoenix
Nobody know why I cannot disable it?
remote lintel
vinyl answered your question
faint flare
You need to target it in gpose
calm phoenix
I did not see it.
fast hull
is it hard to collect blue mage spells like 1 year kinda thing
calm phoenix
Two people had similar profile pictures so I missed it
calm phoenix
How do I target in gpose? I seem to not have the option
faint flare
Especially doing dungeons synced
You just target them like anything else. The gpose window lists controls and should tell how to target other stuff
Dpad with the menu closed should work
calm phoenix
Except it does not target anything
faint flare
Not everything is targetable in gpose
calm phoenix
Nothing.is.targetable
faint flare
Targetting monster or npc
calm phoenix
No matter what. Cannot even target myself
faint flare
You're targetted by default
calm phoenix
I tried this dragon in Coerthas Western Highlands
faint flare
Mobs in general aren't targetable
calm phoenix
I seem to not be able to target her
leaden ginkgo
You won't be about to log off in a housing ward before the maintenance, right?
violet forge
@faint flare thanks!
calm phoenix
Why? Some monsters are very cool and people might want their picture with them. I feel as long as they do not aggro you, you should be able to target them for gpose
faint flare
They can still aggro you in gpose if you're within the aggro range and level range for them to aggro you
calm phoenix
Not if you are >11 levels above them
faint flare
Its just how it is
gloomy ice
You can log out in a housing ward any time. You just won't be able to access the new ones until maintenance ends.

since ffxiv hunt path website is no longer in service, is there's another website similar to that?
manic flare
how much exp do i gain if i just do 10 floors of potd
slate crow
So is BLU the only thing that can be powerleveled at all?
keen fable
what is circle farming? i see a bunch of e5s groups doing it
keen dagger
i mean you technically can "power level" every job if you have a good steady group and spam stuff
calm phoenix
Why was I randomly being unsynced during a couple fates? I was attacking a fate monster and then I target another and it told me that my level was too high and I had to click level sync again. It did that four times with one fate and twice on a boss fate and it reset the boss fate's health which got annoying
keen fable
because you moved out of the circle
calm phoenix
So I am just SOL if the fate boss forces me to run when he lays down an AoE?
jade quartz
You can always evade while remaining in the circle.
keen dagger
@keen fable ooh e5s circle is where you stand in circle for chain lightning
jade quartz
The boss’s health won’t reset unless you run quite a long way out
calm phoenix
How do I know the boundaries? It does not show them on the field
jade quartz
So likely you simply didn’t notice you’d moved out
keen fable
your map
open coral
He's talking about FATEs though @keen dagger not Savage

circles 😄
manic flare
why can't i disband party?
open coral
FATE circles. Lightning circles. Circles of death.
manic flare
keen fable
is 474 ilvl enough to clear e5s? or should i grind some more e8n to get the last two pieces of i480
keen dagger
xD
manic flare
everyone left after the first 10 floors
keen dagger
@keen fable yeah that's fine for savages, although it may be hard to find some group cause i been seeing a few PF earlier for 480 locks which is dumb imo
open coral
@manic flare That's just a matched party though, so that's normal.
ripe hound
What ilv do I probably need if I want to raid in 5.4?
jade quartz
That’s just a matched party, what do you want to disband?
ripe hound
Something around 500+ should definitely be enough right?
manic flare
i just want to progress to floor 11 @jade quartz
jade quartz
Queue up for the next set of floors and you’ll be matchmade with 3 people again
keen dagger
@ripe hound'
manic flare
but people just left after floor 10
open coral
Yes, because PotD/HoH are done in floor groupings of 10
keen dagger
i say around 480 or 495 but min 475 if not mistaken
jade quartz
That’s how it works
ripe hound
Yeah, you just queue again for another group
manic flare
@jade quartz do i reset my progress then?
open coral
You don't need to reset
jade quartz
You simply queue for floor 11
manic flare
jade quartz
Everything is working properly
remote lintel

jade quartz

Well, I finally got the last crystal. It was time for me to call it a night and I was like, "I will do just one more because it is nearby" and voila!
jade quartz
And select the save slot that says floor 11
remote lintel
every 10 floors you can either leave or continue and if you continue you get re-queued
ripe hound
If it says you can't enter it means your gear is bad
jade quartz
You don’t stay with the same people throughout
ripe hound
I mean you just need to do 1-10 again

How does the novice network work?
jade quartz
Unless you pre-make a party beforehand
ripe hound
It's basically this channel
leaden ginkgo
like i see no one talking in it and i don't think i can talk in it
ripe hound
But in game like an FC chat
remote lintel
novice network is a chat channel in game
jade quartz
But dubious quality of advice
open coral
Just be aware that you won't get a checkpoint until you get to floor 51, so if you reset your progress before then, you'll have to start all over from floor 1.
ripe hound
Maybe you aren't in the NN?
keen dagger
Novice network is a system that allow mentors (people who has crown on their name) to help guides new or returning players.
ripe hound
I think you need a mentor to invite you?
jade quartz
You need to be invited
jade quartz
You’re not just in it by default from having sprout status
keen dagger
if you need an invite i would go to Limsa Lominsa and do /shout for a NN invite
keen fable
is there a way to view most popular items sold by server
ripe hound
Yeah after you get in it's basically just another FC chat / linkshell
jade quartz
Otherwise all the gil seller bot accounts would flood it
open coral
Returning players get defaulted into the NN if there's room when they log in.
ripe hound
Although Mentors often have a bad reputation, I do find that people in NN are generally quite nice
open coral
The ones with the flower sprout
leaden ginkgo
Limsa's a popular place i take it?
jade quartz
Quality of novice network varies by server
leaden ginkgo
i'm only level 16 right now
ripe hound
Right, Quality is determined by server
remote lintel
limsa has the most players compared to other cities
keen dagger
Yes Limsa Lominsa is a populated place usually cause everything is right beside the aetheryte
leaden ginkgo
ok
open coral
You won't spend a lot of time sitting in Limsa if you're only level 16 though.
ripe hound
If you are lv 16 just go to your main city
Gridania, Uldh, etc.
For HoH leveling, should I start form floor 1 or floor 21?
glad comet
21

Are you able to download the patch during the maintenance or is it available when its concluded?
twilit arch
during maint
jade quartz
Sometime during maint DL will become available
Like halfway through or thereabouts in this case probably

Is anyone having connection issues? I’m able to talk and do everything on my pc perfectly fine but on ffxiv everything freezes (animation wise) I can still move around and suddenly everything will catch up

do players need to be outside housing areas for maintenance or can you spawn inside near the ferry skipper?
jade quartz
Ought to be fine if you’re inside a currently-existing housing ward
severe salmon

won't you get kicked out?

well there are some exceptions
thats why i was curious
numbers with AF are not shown
remote lintel
what exceptions
analog gate
tanks AoE on 2+, SCH on 2+, WHM on 4+ i believe
remote lintel
well yeah cause tanks
cyan fable
How many more hours until the server go on maintenance?
obsidian patio
WHM at 3 and AST at 2
MCH/BRD/DNC aoe at 2 also
@cyan fable two and a half hours

Are the duty roulettes worth only doing once per day for the daily bonus?
remote lintel
yes you only get the bonus once a day
severe salmon
idk can anyone else confirm you get kicked out wards? @remote lintel
hazy estuary
yeah, but without the bonus, do they still give good exp or is it just not worth it/
remote lintel
no it isnt
leaden ginkgo
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Housing
according to this, there are a total of 5040 plots per server.
Does that mean only 5k people can own a plot?
obsidian patio
Running it again is the exact same as directly queueing for the duty
leaden ginkgo
also how many users are there per server? on average
obsidian patio
Probably double-triple that
Probably higher
We haven’t had an official census since the middle of Heavensward
leaden ginkgo
damn, thats awful
we barely have enough plots for everyone
is it true that a single person can own several houses?
obsidian patio
Yes and no
If you owned multiple houses before they put the ownership restrictions in place, then yes
jade quartz
One person can own one private house and one free company house if they have their own free company
Many people have a free company of 1 person for this purpose
You need four members to buy a FC house but you can just stock it with alts
obsidian patio
Current restrictions are something along the lines of an account only being able to have one personal house per server
Regardless of how many characters you have on that world
leaden ginkgo
oh okay thats a bit better then
so to maximize my chances of getting a plot i have to be the first to click the placard
obsidian patio
Yes
leaden ginkgo
what if i want to share the plot with a friend(s)
is that a thing?
like, the game acknowledges co-ownership
and they can edit the furnishings
leaden ginkgo
ah, i needa figure that out
obsidian patio
Looks like it’s something you do after you bought the house in the housing menu
leaden ginkgo
oh okay, so i dont have to worry about it till later

what do you normally spend white gathering scrips on rn?
if you have the gear from it

Hey I saw this cool long Asian-mythology-esque dragon mount. It was blue and I don’t know what it’s called.
Trying to get the name of it

@lapis bolt is it the o1s mount?
manic flare
what's the item level gear requirement to enter floors 11-20 of PotD?
lapis bolt
Wait that might be it
twilit arch
alte roite, the mount is from deltascape v4.0 savage
assuming this is the correct one
lapis bolt
Yes that’s it sorry lol
outer plank
yeah thats it
obsidian patio
@manic flare pretty low, probably like 4/4 or 5/5 aetherpool
twilit arch
does it really matter
obsidian patio
@outer plank I’d say materia
manic flare
@obsidian patio doesn't depend on equipped gear requirement?
obsidian patio
Nope
lapis bolt
I meant it looked similar to the Chinese dragon.
obsidian patio
POTD doesn’t care about outside gear
lapis bolt
And that was based on a glimpse of it. I only saw it for a second
obsidian patio
You can go in completely naked and it’d have no effect on your stats
leaden ginkgo
is the due date of wondrous tails fixed or does it depend on the date I receive it?
warped nest
Fixed
fresh lodge
Its the second weekly reset after you receive it
warped nest
A new WT is available every weekly reset, but you cannot have two at the same time.
leaden ginkgo
how do you know what grade a plot is?
oblique trellis
How long is Labyrinth of the Ancients? Can I finish before maint?
(never raided before)
oblique trellis
2 hours
warped nest
Doesn't work here?
raven sage
no
warped nest
Fair
2 hours.... Sure you might be able to do Labyrinth of the Ancient and Sycrus tower
Probably not World of Darkness
little swift
depends on how long your queues are
but they take about 20 minutes each
faster if you have a group that doesn't slow down
warped nest
/\
oblique trellis
queue instapopped so I guess I'll try
warped nest
@oblique trellis very quick advice: if you don't know what's going on, follow your healer
And on the 2nd part where you went part to starting point then turn right and walk into three separate hallway, make sure you followed your party into the correct hallway
A - Left, B - Middle, C - Left
Good luck

My first time in LOTA wiped at teh behomoth boss 6x
leaden ginkgo
what level is that duty?
faint flare
Lv70, requires clearing Sigmascape 4 to unlock
Its considered one of the easier ultimates but still brutally hard
leaden ginkgo
can be done unsync?
remote lintel
ultimates are the hardest content in the game
leaden ginkgo
harder than savage raids?
rotund sable
much
remote lintel
yes
zinc orbitBOT
rotund sable
less forgiving and longer fights
remote lintel
it goes extreme > savage >>>>>>> ultimate
rotund sable
ultimate isnt the kind of thing you can "pop in" to grab a bit of glam
theres a reason the glams are a rare sight
faint flare
Need consistent performance for 15mins...barely any breaks...mistakrs can snowball extremely fast to wipe
rotund sable
enrage is also less of a joke than savage
remote lintel
savage can take you a few weeks to learn, ultimates may take a few months

https://gyazo.com/f2002589697026e7f103e6fac10a93af is this cause patch maintenance?
remote lintel
no
remote lintel
its because you have a beast tribe quest active
keen dagger
confused i haven't done beast tribe in arr i think
remote lintel
apparently you have
faint flare
"no daily beast tribe quest accepted prior today"
remote lintel
or at least accepted one
keen dagger
ooh wow Ixal, aint sure when i did this

Its a rule for all beast tribes
faint flare
But each tribe only offers a number of quests daily
remote lintel
right by the aetheryte
keen dagger
ooh okay
fast hull
anyone knows what dance is this

thank you

Custom
faint flare
If you dont see him then you already accepted it
Or completed it and are on the next step

I only have the harvest dance? where can I get other dances

Gold saucer, beast tribes, Mogstation
haughty spade
says I have to do certain quests in crystal tower
so where can I find the actual tower?
oblique trellis
That.... was... interesting 😄
faint flare
You need to do the quest line with Legacy of Allag

so many lights and colors at once
faint flare
You probably completed the first step
Which means the next step is at the Saint Moch camp in the south east at ranbraoes
remote lintel
rammbroes
haughty spade
rammbroes?

Yes
At the south east camp
If you have completed legacy of Allag he has the next step

How can I live when I’m done with MSQ? 🤔
eager widget
do the old raid storylines, find a passion for glamour, flex it among your peers
rotund sable
same way you lived for the rest of your life, i'd imagine
shell crest
would it be reasonably easy to find an fc thats like half female or is this a game with mostly guys
haughty spade
okay found the quest ty
faint flare
There's a good mix
oblique trellis
idk, I just assume all female avatars are guys
I'd imagine they're not..of course.. but definitely a lot of them
rotund sable
a fair amount of FC's have a fair amount of females, but unless you're in voice with them, and even then, its not exactly the easiest to verify that claim
shell crest
ah ok i was just wondering if im just searching for something thats nonexistent
twilit arch
most people aren't exactly going to wave around the fact their FC has a bunch of chicks in it
cos most people don't really care
jade quartz
A large number of women play this game
because women are humans
and it's just normal
remote lintel
I'm pretty sure even a fair amount of mods and mentors in this server are female
so
shell crest
ok thanks
jade quartz
The majority (I think) of staff here are yeah

not really a question but my party is spamming lahabread what is it

Ah ok

it comes from an ucob run

If you get the letter D as the target letter next to lahabrea's name
twilit arch
where lalabrea had a B behind his name due the tagging system

Its lahabread

wait seriously

er D, not b lmao

is it cheaper to use dark matter to repair than just using the NPC mend?
I understand your gear gets more durability with custom repairs, but I want to know if it's cheaper
remote lintel
yes since it costs nothing
gloomy ice
Grade 7 dark matter is somewhat expensive but, yeah, in the long run you repair it less often. I'm not expert but I would say it sort of evens out.
I was mistaken I guess? 
twilit arch
you can buy it with gc seals
twilit arch
also its 200g on vendor
eager widget
iirc it’s cheaper than a full 100% repair from an npc at lv80

the plot price ranges are the same

Can I get in trouble for saying I bought my levels for crafting? Which is just buying the items for guild leves and turning them in
gloomy ice
If you have an apartment, you already meet requirements to buy a plot of land.
leaden ginkgo
thank you
limber kindle
You had me in the first half lol
twilit arch
no, leve kits are a pretty common thing
limber kindle
that's what most people do Freis
haughty spade
can I do that on free trial?
little swift
depends on how you worded it and how people interpret it, but you can't really get in trouble for using levekits
limber kindle
easy way to make money is selling that stuff
opaque pewter
Someone was saying I RMT'd -.-
jade quartz
That's not RMT by any stretch of the imagination
Levekits are a common practice
well, common-ish
limber kindle
you used Levekits
warped nest
If you buy leve kit with your own Gil earned from questing/msq/selling mats
It is not an issue
opaque pewter
Okay. I mean, my wife gave me the money, but it's not like it's RMT anyway.

those houses will be on random timer like normal

quick question, I'm trying to house hunt but do you have to log off from the ferry skipper? (my friend said that it congests the heck out when you log off at shirogane bridge)

if you're at a ferry skipper, it would be reasonable to assume that you won't be trying to load in with a lot of other people
rancid ibex
How quickly are small houses likely to go out? I am after one of the higher grade smalls in Shirogane in a medium population server. I've practiced my route to get there (NIN is one of my only 80s, so I am doing some shukuchi nonsense) and I've marked my screen with all the places to click. Am I wildly overprepared, or is there a big risk of competition?
haughty spade
what main stats should I focus on for paladin?
little swift
main stat is strength and vitality
and defense
there is probably going to be competition

just asking for when I have to pick gear from quests and what not.
do paladins use int?

nope
